The game has no user-interface and no dialogue. No background music. Instead, the game uses sounds to make you feel like you're really there. The sounds and echo change depending on the room you're in. Walking in water is slower. All of these things makes the game feel more real and creates a tense atmosphere.

There's no typical story, no characters to meet, and you won't find any notes in game. But as you explore and advance further, you start to notice that the game's world changes around you. Rooms look and feel different. Each chapter has something unique. Constantly you're exploring new places, each with its own kind of mystery.

POOLS has six unique chapters, each taking 10 to 30 minutes to play.

POOLS is inspired by a internet phenomenons "Liminal spaces", "Found footage" and "Backrooms" - specifically "Backrooms Pools" or "Poolrooms".

One of the original artists behind the Poolrooms concept is Jared Pike.

Other inspirations include:

GAMEPLAY FEATURES

COHESIVE "LIVED-IN" WORLD
Scorn takes place in an open-ended world with different interconnected regions. Each region is a maze-like structure with various rooms and paths to discover. All the storytelling happens in-game, with no cut-scenes to distract you from the grisly reality of the living, breathing world you’re in. But keep your eyes open - the game won’t show you any sympathy if you miss something important on your uneasy travels.

FULL BODY AWARENESS
Players will experience better immersion being aware of the character’s body and movement. Interaction with the world is realistic - objects are picked up with your hands (instead of just floating in midair), machines and instruments are operated by grabbing the controls, etc.

DEVIL'S ROCK
An island off the coast of Louisiana
1933

“Ever since I heard of the treasure inside Bellemore Manor I've been obsessed by it. People said the house was still haunted by the ghosts of the wedding that disappeared there decades ago, but if the ghosts knew where the treasure was hidden, I just had to ask them.

But there's more to the treasure than I could have ever expected, and now I've awakened a household of spirits who don't mind that they're dead, and an evil phantom determined to find the treasure before I do.

Fixing the situation won't just mean getting to the treasure first, but also figuring out what happened on the island all those years ago. But I have a feeling that in order to do that, I'll have to die too.”

What if you lost all your memories? An emotional family drama seen through the eyes of a woman with Alzheimer's disease. As Annie’s life slowly unravels, uncover memories of her deceased brother as her past bleeds into the present.

STORY

Inspired by personal stories. You play as Annie, an elderly woman whose memory is starting to betray her. Annie and her children cope with reversed caretaking roles as she moves from her long-time home. While her children clash over how to care for her, old memories of Annie’s long-dead brother start to emerge.

As Long As You're Here is a subtle reflection of what life with dementia might look like, and a story about complex sibling relationships.

SHORT & PERSONAL

As Long As You're Here is a short and personal experience made with care by a small team of developers.

The aim is to create a mature and nuanced experience that shows the difficult repercussions of losing not only your memory, but also your agency and sense of time and place.

What disappears when we forget?

... and what resurfaces?

FEATURES

Short & Subtle: A short and subtle experience designed to be enjoyed in one sitting.
Personal: Inspired by real stories and includes real-life photos of the developers' own family members - some of whom suffered from Alzheimer's disease.

Story Rich: Explore Annie's life through dialogue, mementos, and letters from the past. Meet family members and unpack the tensions and dynamics between them.
Subversive Vignettes: The player's own memory comes into play. As the world around Annie shifts and changes, players share in her failing faculties.
Immersive Audio & Original Music

Explore the seemingly infinite expanse of eerily familiar levels in backrooms based on the popular creepypasta lore. Each level features different ways to escape with dangers along the way.

Realistic graphics, minimal user interfaces, and dreary ambience combine for an atmospheric horror experience that's terrified millions of players on Steam.

Explore the backrooms with a team of up to 4 players. Good luck: teammates may no-clip into other areas of the map and every member of your team must reach the exit alive to escape. No wanderer left behind.

Traverse 30+ unique levels based on backrooms lore. Don't wander far from your team, as you can easily get lost in the confusing expanse of the backrooms.

Check every corner for the many hostile entities lurking inside the backrooms. Each has their own mechanics. Learn quickly if you want to survive the horror.

Communicate with your teammates with proximity voice chat. Entities can also hear you, so stay quiet whenever you're near danger.

An RPG Maker tour de force, and a divisively controversial work for fans.

You are free to explore the various dream worlds at your own pace.
If you check certain characters or items in the game you will collect an “Effect”. These “Effects” can be used to change the main character’s appearance.

Some of these “Effects” have special actions or animations which you can activate by pressing 1 or 3 on the number pad.

Yume Nikki is a very unique title that has become one of the most well-known indie games to come out of Japan.

It is unlike any other RPG, especially in the fact that there really is no action or dialogue to speak of. This gives the game a very dark and foreboding atmosphere. Can you make it to the secret ending?

There are no particular goals nor story of which to speak. You simply walk around.
Checking certain characters inside the dream will increase the number of "Effects".
Using "Effects" will cause the main character's appearance to change.
(During this time, you can use the 1 or 3 keys to implement special movements and effects.)
Using the same "Effect" a second time will cause the character to revert to their original form.
"Effects" can only be discarded inside rooms with many doors.

FAQ

Q. There is a glitch or aspect ratio issue in the game.
A. Please switch to Window mode by pressing F4 or Alt + Enter.

Q. Why does the Japanese version crash?
A. The Japanese language coding in this game runs only on Japanese system locales.

Kentucky Route Zero is beautifully bizarre and perfectly poignant, and most of all, deserves your attention."

9.5 - Destructoid

"However you respond to its ethereal imagery, this is a game which makes a rare suggestion: who a player is may be more important than what they do."

as bird songs give way to the choir of frogs and insects, familiar roads become strange, and it's easy to get lost. Those who are already lost may find their way to a secret highway winding through underground caves. The people who live and work along this highway are themselves a little strange at first, but soon seem familiar: the aging driver making the last delivery for a doomed antique shop; the young woman who fixes obsolete TVs surrounded by ghosts; the child and his giant eagle companion; the robot musicians; the invisible power company lurking everywhere, and the threadbare communities who struggle against its grip.
\r\n
\r\nKENTUCKY ROUTE ZERO is a magical realist adventure game in five acts, featuring a haunting electronic score, and a suite of hymns and bluegrass standards recorded by The Bedquilt Ramblers. Rendered in a striking visual style that draws as much from theater, film, and experimental electronic art as it does from the history of videogames, this is a story of unpayable debts, abandoned futures, and the human drive to find community.","https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/231200/page_bg_raw.jpg?t=1692292539",[5860],{"_16":275,"_276":5861,"_290":5866,"_292":31,"_30":31,"_293":163,"_294":295,"_296":297},[5862],{"_279":5753,"_280":5863,"_282":77,"_283":163,"_284":31,"_285":83,"_286":5864,"_288":5865},"Kentucky Route Zero - Season Pass - 22,99€ 9,19€","-60% ",919,"Buy Kentucky Route Zero: PC Edition",{"_300":5865,"_301":5868,"_303":304,"_305":5869,"_307":1275,"_309":5870},2299,"9,19€","22,99€","https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/231200/capsule_184x69.jpg?t=1692292539",{"_315":5873,"_317":5874},"Minimum:

Two young friends, lost in a frightening world not made for children.

If they cannot find a way out of this Nowhere place, they’ll be condemned to a fate worse than death.

You play as Low and Alone, best friends ever since they found each other in this lonely nightmare. They each possess their own iconic item: a bow for Low and a wrench for Alone. Working together, they’ve become adept at sneaking through hidden passages, hoisting each other over massive obstacles, and watching each other’s backs. Whether you’re playing with a friend or an A.I. companion, you’ll depend on each other's iconic items to create opportunities and to progress. The environment is full of clues and possibilities for imaginative children to exploit. Low’s arrows can reach high targets, cut through ropes, or down flying enemies, and Alone’s wrench is just the thing for crushing stunned enemies, smashing through barriers, or manipulating the workings of massive machines.

No matter where you go, the Nowhere is home to horrific monsters. These Residents won't hesitate to go out of their way to capture any intrusive little Visitors that draw their attention. You might find yourself playing a terrifying game of hide and seek with Monster Baby in the sandy ruins of the Necropolis, struggling to avoid swarms of voracious Candy Weevils in an unsetlling Candy Factory, or dodging heavy feet while running along the rain-soaked promenade of a filthy funfair. You'll need to be ready to run, hide, or even defend yourself at a moment's notice to stay in one piece.

Don’t be too distracted by the desolate beauty of the Nowhere. There are dark mysteries waiting for you as Low and Alone follow their mirror path across the Spiral. As each new location will become more dangerous and disturbing than the last, traumatic flashes from the past will begin to emerge. Will Low and Alone finally escape from this unending nightmare?

Only you can help them, little ones...

Hell is Us is a 3rd-person action-adventure game that combines intense melee combat with the thrill of exploration. Explore a semi-open world to find answers to your questions and face mysterious creatures all along your journey.

A HOSTILE WORLD

As well as the civil war dividing the country, the region is suffering from a mysterious calamity, which has given rise to supernatural creatures that no modern weapon can defeat. Your drone and sword from a different age are your faithful allies as you cut a path through lands infested with terrifying chimeras and try to unravel the mystery of their appearance.

A UNIQUE EXPLORATION SYSTEM

No map, no compass, no quest markers: following your instincts is part of the adventure. Enjoy a unique experience that uses innovative writing and level design to let you make your own decisions and follow your instincts as you explore. Your discoveries are yours alone.

COMBAT AGAINST ORIGINAL CREATURES

Swords, spears and axes: a wide range of weapons forged specially for fighting these supernatural creatures is available. You will need to learn how to fight these monsters and use your drone wisely to stay alive.

''The central theme of Hell is Us is that human violence is a perpetual cycle fueled by human emotions and passions.'' – Jonathan Jacques-Belletête, Creative Director

Arctic Awakening is a first-person narrative adventure set in the mysterious Arctic North where you and your robotic companion, Alfie, must search for your co-pilot and uncover the mysteries waiting around every turn.

It was supposed to be routine. A supply drop to an Alaskan town, auto-pilot on, guard down. You and Donovan were already planning post mission drinks when it happened.

Eclipsium is a first-person horror game where you play as the desperate Wanderer. In search of Her, his path leads through hellish tombs, cathedrals of flesh and even through space, immolating himself and sacrificing anything to achieve his goal.

Don’t stop

There is no safety or comfort in Eclipsium. Let the pale light guide you through, as every place hides its own path to escape.

Enter the spiral

Everything fades and senses dull in this endless darkness. But with you remains your power - a twisting, transmuting hand, ready to carve a way through whatever stands before you.

Find her

Her weak light, now little more than a whisper of a memory, pulls you forward. Even if it’s a lure, it remains your only hope inside the anguished eclipse.

The Entropy Centre is a mind-bending puzzle adventure where you reverse objects through time to overcome seemingly impossible obstacles and conundrums.

Manipulate time to your will and solve ingeniously challenging puzzle rooms, each one taking you closer to the heart of a colossal space station in orbit of Earth.

An extinction level event has set the world ablaze. You appear to be the last remaining person alive. Mankind’s only hope lies at the core of the Entropy Centre.

Meet ASTRA, The Entropy Centre’s most advanced technical marvel. ASTRA is an AI-powered device that can scan an object’s spacetime chronology and move it through the past. Powers include rebuilding collapsing pillars to reheating cups of tea. She’s pretty chill.

The truth behind The Entropy Centre’s imminent collapse, and the Earth’s demise, can be found at the heart of this sprawling dangerous facility. But will you accept the unfortunate truth that awaits?

Deviously challenging with razor-sharp witty writing and outstanding voice acting performances, The Entropy Centre merges a brilliant puzzle game with an epic adventure.
